Family Activities in Elko
Banish Boredom and Get Yourself to Elko
There is nothing quite like a road trip to bring families together in the way only families can. In Elko, family activities bring out the best in everyone, thanks to the wide variety of fun things to do here.
Maybe the kids will be begging for another hour on the monkey bars at Big Orv’s playground, or asking for another round of bowling accompanied by a scoop of ice cream at a local Telescope Lanes. Perhaps they’ll develop a new interest in science or history as they check out the area’s multiple — and super fun — museums including the Northeastern Nevada Museum or the California Trail Interpretive Center. We know they’ll love our multitude of events hosted annually, from the Ruby Mountain Balloon Festival to the Silver State Stampede and quite a few more.
From hiking, horseback riding and snow sledding in the Humboldt National Forest to a bounty of indoor activities, kids will love their time in Elko.
Which means you will, too.
